Trivia

James Woods has said in some interviews that he enjoyed voicing Hades so much, that he will always be willing to voice him in any future appearances, regardless of the pay. So far, he has done so in Hercules: The Animated Series, Hades Challenge, Fantasmic!, House of Mouse, the Kingdom Hearts series, Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom, Disney's Not So Spooky Spectacular and World of Color: Villainous.
- However, the only time Woods didn't voice Hades was his singing voice, which was done by Rob Paulsen, especially in the song It's Our House Now!.
